If baby reindeer had sex with his stalker… who would be taking advantage of whom?

There is a lot wrong with student debt forgiveness. It fails to consider signaling theory, it creates bad incentives and it’s an unjust redistribution of resources.

Signaling: some of this turns on the degree to which we believe that higher ed improves human capital vs. is…

Vlada playing dominatrix this morning

I really can’t see how red hook is apparently cool - is this just a sign that I’m old/basic? All I see is an ugly industrial neighborhood (but with great development potential)

PSA: guys, we really need to stop using the term “loser”. It’s offensive and dehumanizing. Please consider more compassionate language such as “person who has lost”

Whether it’s the patriarchy or the globalist elites who are obscuring the truth, this sort of deep cynicism about Power makes a common understanding of the facts impossible. There was a point in time where we could have real disagreements about what goals were most important, and…

Passed by a bunch of families cleaning garbage out of the river in red hook and we overhear some girl yelling “I found three more tampons!” - I appreciate their efforts but not sure the environmental impact they’re having is worth that

Trying to start a meditation habit using the Sam Harris intro course - I’ve tried many times before but maybe 5th time’s a charm?

It seems like way more than 50% of people think they *aren’t* photogenic. Is it that, on average, people look better irl than in photos OR that most people think they’re hotter than they actually are because they only see themselves doing their “mirror face”?

People are complaining about “violent overreach” seemingly without noticing that students are only being prevented from using tactics which impinge on the rights of others. They are allowed to protest! But they can’t be allowed to prevent people from accessing parts of campus,…

If I was a student, and there were areas of campus I couldn't go to unless I pledged fealty to a political cause -- seriously, whatever the cause was, even 'liking ice cream' -- I'd be absolutely furious, especially if administrators didn't immediately step in and ban the…

People are fixated on the question of whether anti-Zionism is inherently antisemitic. But anti-Zionism is just a view about one discrete issue, not a whole worldview. So some anti-Zionists can be rabidly antisemitic Islamists while others are old-left universalists, not motivated…
